In this investigation 6 different types of Mushroom from different provinces, including Qaraqazni, Kolamark, Ganoderma, Sadafi wardak, Dakmayai and Sadafi panjshir collected. The collected samples were cultured on PDA inside the Petri dish. Then the grown spores were transferred to wheat grains to produce spawn. As a result, some of them had good growth, some of them had moderate growth, and some others had poor growth. Therefore, among these six varieties, Sadafi-e-wardak, Dogmayi, Qaraqozni had better growth and Ganoderma, Sadafi-e-panjshir had average growth and Kalemark variety had the lowest growth.
